Hello's, Writers, Artists and Young Poets

Posted by Wendy Ewurum |&nbsp at 1:23 PM

Hello everybody.

So nice to pop in here again and on a Monday.

I'm so excited because life has just delivered her new lease and all feels like its falling into place with the universe. Babies are being delivered everywhere too and onward and upwards all artists go. I just wanna send a shout out to a few precious people and if you not on the list you are not less important. I've just been terrible with my blog emails.

Kiru Taye just had a real angel delivered to her home (a stunningly beautiful baby boy) not even a few weeks back and she's already busy with new book releases. Isn't she just woman phenomenal.

DL Atha also gave me a shout just the other day about the release of her latest book which I'm totally ecstatic about because I love Dr. D's unique medical approach to the paranormal genre. And if I'm not mistaken. Dr. D was my first interview and her first book (Blood Reaction) was my very first book review when I started this blog about two years ago. In fact exactly two years ago in June.

Its awesome to have such a long history with my writer friends.

And a very belated cogratulations to Nicki Elson too. Nicki released The Three Daves which I reveiwed here over a year ago . I loved her quirkiness in that book. I was just alerted the other day that Divine Temptation has been released. Another baby born HOORAY! Posting review soon, promise!

Patti Roberts, author of the Paradox series, great blogverse friend and writing machine also promised me a giveaway soon. I hope from her exciting series _Whitchwood Estate. I'm itching to get my hand on that really soon. Even sooner for my readers.

And now I want to add another congratulations to an artist friend who is currently having a show in New York. Jonele Scholtz is an extraordinarily talented artist from the almost/kinda "rural" parts of our province but the work that she creates.....OMW.....You just have to see it. She is nothing short of amazin in my books. Check our her FB page.

And at last but not least. I want to introduce a young man that I have known for about three years now on Facebook, Pontsho Reamogetswe Mahlaka. Pontsho has just worked his way into my heart steadily over the years with his writing. I'm still interested in how he moved from the northen outskirts of Johannesburg to Canada in the last while (i havent heard the story as yet but I promise we all will if I have to drag it out of him). I hope you'll enjoy this poem that he sent me recently and leave your comment to encourage this young prodigy. There are not many poets left and we need to just nurture them.

Most know me as the author to Fabulosity Reads and in actual fact, that is the previous name of this blog. I have since then moved my books to a Wordpress self-hosted blog so that I can have a place to show a different side of me which I am equally passionate about and that is marketing and personal development. I hope you will love being here, watching me grow as I share and learn. My highest hope is that we will grown and learn together in all disciplines affecting our lives. I'd LUUURRRVE to hear from you, so don't be shy...

And a belated thank you. :) I think you'll find Divine Temptation to be quite different from Three Daves. I'm super behind in blogland, so please send me the link when the review posts & I'll be sure to send some people over! (elson.nici@gmail.com)
